Summary: The AI transformation is spurring a virtuous cycle of computing which will impact not just how we do computing, but what computing can do for us. In this talk, I will discuss some of the emerging application opportunities enabled by AI, and system-level performance challenges that lie at the heart of this intersection of traditional high-performance computing with emerging data-intensive computing.

Bio: Pradeep K. Dubey is an Intel Senior Fellow and director of the Parallel Computing Lab, a part of the Intel Labs organization at Intel Corporation. He leads a team of top researchers focused on state-of-the-art research in parallel computing. Dubey and his team are responsible for defining computer architectures that can efficiently handle emerging machine learning/artificial intelligence, traditional HPC applications for data-centric computing environments, and deriving product differentiation opportunities for Intel’s CPU and GPU processing platforms.
